New Haven grad Beachem involved in G League trade

CHICAGO (WANE) - New Haven High School and Notre Dame graduate V.J. Beachem is on the move in the NBA G League for the second time in the last two months as the Wisconsin Herd dealt him to the Windy City Bulls.

In exchange for Beachem the Herd acquires the returning rights of Aaron Thomas and Windy's City's 2019 second round pick.

The six-foot-eight Beachem was traded by the South Bay Lakers for fellow Fort Wayne native James Blackmon Jr. in October.

Beachem played last season for South Bay averaging 8.6 points and 2.3 rebounds a night.

Beachem played in one game this season for Wisconsin without recording any stats in two minutes of action.
